Bug description:
  I am using Ubuntu Oneric. Recent updates (where recent means the last
  two weeks, I can't say when exactly it happened) broke my desktop
  completely.

  Every part of the screen, I mean every button, label, checkboxes and other interface widgets, the panel, launcher, desktop itselt, window title panels, and probably even more elements turned into black rectangles. In some cases it's a flashing rectangle (launcher is simply black, but the wallpaper behind it flashes when I touch it with my mouse). In case of window titles this is just a black rectangle instead of window decoration. In case of buttons labels etc. they display OK, until I move the mouse over them, then they turn into this black rectangle, and get back to normal when I move the window (sometimes some parts of the window randomly switch back to normal, just as if the window was partially redrawn). In firefox, behavior is similar, but everything gets black when I scroll the page, and returns to normal when I switch the tab. In terminal, all characters I type are black rectangles and are not seen at all, but it gets redrawn properly when I move the window. The unity panel is not displayed at all (black).
  I cannot see the desktop itself, it's whole black, unless I open an indicator's menu, when I can see both the full walpaper and the icons. 

  I tried both fglrx from the repos and from ati driver download site,
  the result is same.

  Unity2D works okay, and that's what I use temporarily, but I never had
  problems with unity3D. Note this apport-bug report I collected when
  using the broken unity3D, hope that will be more useful.
